No, but if the opponent looks up to track the thrown object, you might hit him with a more direct (not arcing) ranged attack? employing a AoA (Double)? Or maybe that is a ranged Feint? Classic snow ball fighting dirty trick. I think this is a pretty great example! Dicerning at a glance where the real threat lies could work as a roll vs IQ.
